natural structure definition

natural structure in p(x; y) means that most of the relevant information can be captured by a relatively compact representation. This in turn yields a normalized relevance-compression curve which is near unity even when I(T ;X) is small. On the opposite extreme, if any attempt to compress X loses a significant frac- tion of the relevant information about Y , the corresponding curve will be near the main diagonal of this plane. In the right panel of Figure 2.6 we illustrate these two cases. Note that analyzing joint distributions in the normalized relevance-compression plane must always be accompanied by considering the absolute information values.

  • Residential structure means an individual residential condominium unit or a residential building containing not more than 2 residential units, the land on which it is or will be located, and all appurtenances, in which the owner or lessee contracting for the improvement is residing or will reside upon completion of the improvement.

  • Water control structure means a structure within, or adjacent to, a water, which intentionally or coincidentally alters the hydraulic capacity, the flood elevation resulting from the two-, 10-, or 100-year storm, flood hazard area limit, and/or floodway limit of the water. Examples of a water control structure may include a bridge, culvert, dam, embankment, ford (if above grade), retaining wall, and weir.
